DESCRIPTION
Psychological Costs, Consequences, and an Agenda for Change
Restrictive definitions of masculinity limit individual well-being and fuel social challenges—from sexism and violence to depression and substance abuse. Merging years of research with personal insights, the work challenges entrenched norms and calls on therapists, researchers, and educators to address gender role conflicts.
Men amp rsquo s gender role conflict (GRC) is a psychological state in which restrictive definitions of masculinity limit individual well-being and overall human potential. GRC is a problem for boys and men, girls and women, transgendered people, and society at large. It is related to numerous problems, such as sexism, violence, homophobia, depression, and substance abuse.
Combining over 3 years of research in men amp rsquo s psychology and the author amp rsquo s own experience in conceptualizing GRC, this book promotes activism and challenges the status quo, calling on researchers and clinicians to confront GRC and reduce its harmful effects.
Features:
amp bull Discusses practical applications of GRC theory in psychotherapy and in educational and preventative programs .
amp bull Synthesizes over 3 studies of the Gender Role Conflict Scale (GRCS), providing multiple directions for researchers to pursue.
